Here is what happened to my skein of Lion Brand Homespun. I had to cut the yarn before this and join in the middle of the square because this mess showed up. I just can’t believe how poorly this yarn is constructed. There literally is no yarn in this section. It’s gone. All that’s there is the thread that holds the fiber together cause it’s not really spun or plied. It’s just crazy. So once this project is done, that’s it. Nothing else will ever be knit or crocheted using this yarn.

It so happened that I was at my SNB tonight when I came across this problem. So after some whining, I cut the bad section out and continued on. But yes, in good blogger fashion, I saved the crap so I could take a picture and post it here.

Besides that I’m really enjoying the simplicity that is N’s afghan. At least till I get to the seaming and ripple border.
